in answer to Bravo's question
Hey Bravo,
having flown into Tremorfa on several occasions, I think I can say that it's got only one-side-and-a-bit that is either mud or water.
For PPL training this issue needs to be addressed. I understand that there are various solutions, the best one (IMHO) being what Teeside have done by getting a hovercraft to be the recovery/rescue vehicle.
For other training, strangely, this isn't the case!
Doubtless there are other solutions, but the main thing is that Tremorfa is a fabulous facility for pilots in South Wales, and it's about time that pilots and their friends knew about it.
Would non-turbine pilots visit more often if there was AvGas as well as Avtur available?
And what would be a reasonable landing fee for a piston-engined helicopter?
Oh, I agree, Catherine loves Milk Tray, so make sure you land with some onboard.
